Another Lincoln AnsOdole.

Seymour Curtis is one of the characters of
Stratford He went to the war as fifer, and
since has been what may be called an ardent
working Republican. He comes to Bridge
port nearly every day, and on his last visit
told the following anecdote never before
printed:
During the presidential campaign of 1855,
when John G. Fremont was the Republican
nominee, Mr.. Curtis, in company with James
Booth, came to this city co hear Lincoln
speak. As Lincoln stepped upon the plat
form to begin his speech Booth said to Curtis,
What homely mani He's the homeliest
man ever saw But as Lincoln talked and
waxed eloquent, Booth brought his clenched
fist down on Curtis's knee (and the latter said
he hit hard and said, Seymour Curtis, he is
not so bad looking after alll He grows hand
somer all the time At last with sledge
hammer blow of his fist ON Curtis's knee,
Booth exclaimed, Curtis, he's the hand
soonest man 1 ever saw. '"-New York Tri-

TOBACCO STATISTICS.
Review of the Leaf Tobacco Situation
The Supply and Consumption,

LOUISVILLE, November 26 The Courier Journal,
this morning. publsl es a comprehensive and valu-
able review OF the leaf tobacco situation showing
the facts of yield and supply against the averages
of consumption When it is considered that Ken
lucky produces 81 per cent. of the leaf to-
bacco crop of the United States, and Ken
tucky, Indiana Illinois, Tennessee, Ohio
and Missouri produce "a per cent of the total crop
of the United States, 1t will be that eumms airy
of the general interest shows the following are the
main points of the article:
The western leaf crop toots up 10000, pounds
or % er cent. of recent averages and the eastern
leaf crop T2,000000 pounds, or per cent. de-
crease. The eastern and western leaf crops and
all market stocks of the United Stats, make up
5000 1000 pounds, gainst 591 900 900 year ago,
and 800 5000 two years ago. The supply from
new crops and market ustocks falls 2l1,000,000
pounds below the late average taking for domestic
and foreign consumption, while in 1888 there was
surplus of $4,000 600 pounds, and in 1885 sur
plus of "a, 0l,000.
In conclusion the Review states:
"In this historical year of the tobacco trade
Louisville has much more than maintained her
former prominence as the principal to ,acco mar
ket of the United States, and indeed, the business
done here in 1887 materially surpas les in magni-
tude that of all other years. including that of the
jubilee year of 1885.

as he had already published the bans from
his own pulpit, he could marry himself.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
An Idiot Boy Stays His Little Brother
and Sister.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, November 26.-1nformation
reached here last night of fearful tragedy near
Perida, on the Louisville IL Nashville railway. A
halt-witted boy, named Charley Baker, had wit
messed the killing of the family meat. Having been
his brother and sister, aged respectively four and
six years, he came back alone. His clothes were
covered with blood and he told his mother
he had killed them, showing q
sharp butcher knife with which he
said he had done the work. Following him 70 the
spot in the woods, near the slaughter pen, the
mother, sure enough, found her younger son and
blood, both with their throats cut. The girl was
dead and the boy barely alive. While the family
were attending them, Charley disappeared again,
and search being made for him shortly sfterward,
he was found few steps from the same spot dead,
with his jugular vein severed, evidently by his own
hand The wounded boV is mending slowly.
